Know before you buy
With 1,104 square inches of cooking space, this grill is designed for large-scale entertaining. It can easily accommodate enough burgers, steaks, or whole briskets to feed a crowd of 30 to 50 people at once.
Despite its 148-pound weight, the grill is equipped with two swivel-locking casters and two all-weather wheels. This setup allows you to maneuver the unit into position and lock it securely in place once you find the perfect spot.
Yes, the stainless steel hinged grate is specifically designed for this purpose. It allows you to lift sections of the grate to add more charcoal or wood chunks without having to remove the entire cooking surface or your food.
The Tuck-Away lid holder allows you to slide the lid into a bracket on the side of the bowl rather than having to set it on the ground. This keeps your lid clean and out of the way while you are tending to the food.
Temperature control is managed through the rust-resistant aluminum dampers located on the lid and bowl. By adjusting these vents, you can control the airflow and oxygen levels to increase or decrease the heat inside the grill.
The grill features a removable ash catcher that collects debris as you cook. Once the grill has completely cooled, you can simply detach the catcher to dispose of the ash, making cleanup significantly faster than shoveling it out by hand.
